The Hawker 800 features a full standup cabin, which is capable of carrying up to eight passengers and can travel over 5.5 hours nonstop.

    History

    The Hawker 800 series was developed from the Hawker 700 with a number of modifications including a modified rear fuselage fairing, improved wing designs and glass cockpit. The improved Garrett TFE731-5R-1H engines provide additional performance and fuel economy.

    The Hawker 800 series would become a great success and was manufactured for 19 years, producing over 500 airframes and making it the workhorse of the private jet industry.

    In 1994 Raytheon merged the Beech line of jets (which included the Hawker line) into Ratheon and In March 2007, Raytheon Aircraft Company was sold to Hawker Beechcraft Corp., a company formed and controlled by GS Capital Partners and Onex Partners of Canada.
